I love the name [name]Amelia[/name], especially with the middle name we have picked out: [name]Montgomery[/name]. But I am a real fan of nicknames and I just don’t love any of the ones I’ve heard. [name]Amy[/name] seems dated, [name]Emme[/name] is cute but my nice is named [name]Emma[/name] so that’s out, [name]Mia[/name], [name]Mila[/name], [name]Ami[/name], [name]Milly[/name], [name]Melia[/name] are not my style. So I’ve been trying to come up with something else that worked.
What do you think about [name]Ella[/name] for [name]Amelia[/name]? I know its not a dead on match, but I thought it flowed. Very much like [name]Emme[/name] and [name]Mia[/name] aren’t directly shortened, [name]Ella[/name] seems like it has the same sounds and works to me.
Well, I wouldn’t have come up with [name]Ella[/name] and might be a tiny bit confused if I met [name]Amelia[/name] “[name]Ella[/name]”, but it wouldn’t hurt anything. [name]Lia[/name] makes more sense but it sounds like you don’t like that.
Technically it might work, but I wouldn’t do it. [name]Ella[/name] is one of those nicknames/names that is super popular right now. There are so many Ellas and Bellas running around right now that I would try to come up with something less tired sounding. [name]Don[/name]'t get me wrong, [name]Ella[/name] is lovely, but it seems like everybody is either using [name]Ella[/name] or [name]Bella[/name] as nicknames now, and considering that neither were used much a decade or two ago they lost their appeal quickly for me.
[name]Ella[/name] isn’t at all intuitive, but I’m not too fussy about nicknames having to be a close match. I guess [name]Ellie[/name] makes more sense than [name]Ella[/name] in my head.
I could also see [name]Mimi[/name], [name]Amie[/name], [name]Mel[/name], [name]Melly[/name], Or [name]Lia[/name]
I’d find it odd to meet an [name]Amelia[/name] with the nickname [name]Ella[/name], I’m used to hearing [name]Ami[/name], [name]Milly[/name] and [name]Mia[/name]. It’s a bit a stretch and I do think it would it would be difficult to get working but you could try. Would you be bothered if your [name]Amelia[/name] opted to be [name]Mia[/name], [name]Milly[/name], [name]Emme[/name] or any other nickname?
I think just [name]Lee[/name] is a beautiful name, and would work nicely as a nick for [name]Amelia[/name].
If you like [name]Ella[/name], maybe you’d like… [name]LaLa[/name]! I heard it first in a [name]Spike[/name] [name]Lee[/name] film, and I thought “that girl may be an awful sexist stereotype, but she has one sassy name!”
I know a girl named [name]Amelia[/name] and we call her alot of nn Mamma [name]Mia[/name], Mealie, Mealie Mouse, [name]Mia[/name], [name]Amma[/name], [name]Mo[/name], Ammalee, Amealie and [name]Lia[/name] [name]Hope[/name] this helps haha
[name]Ella[/name] could work, but it’s way to popular, with all the Isabellas and Stellas and Gabriellas running around.
Here are some that can work:
[name]Lee[/name]/Li
[name]LeeLee[/name]/Leelie
[name]Mel[/name]
[name]Mimi[/name]
[name]Ali[/name]
[name]Lia[/name]
[name]Mali[/name] (the Hungarian version)
I don’t feel [name]Ella[/name] works, it’s too much of a trench [name]IMO[/name]. The “el” in [name]Amelia[/name] is pronounced too differently. I think [name]Ellie[/name] might work a little better, but still not great. [name]Lee[/name], [name]Lia[/name], [name]Amelie[/name] and [name]Mellie[/name] are nice alternatives.
I know an [name]Amelia[/name] who goes by [name]Mei[/name]-mei. It’s Chinese, when pronounced correctly it means “little sister” and is a term of endearment.
It could work, I don’t see anything speaking against using [name]Ella[/name] as a nickname for [name]Amelia[/name].
My own favourite nicknames for [name]Amelia[/name] are [name]Emmy[/name], Mimou or [name]Ellie[/name].
Mamma [name]Mia[/name], Mealie, Mealie Mouse, [name]Mia[/name], [name]Amma[/name], [name]Mo[/name], Ammalee, Amealie and [name]Lia[/name]
